How did the gap become so large? I'm over in Portland, so I only get around to doing a full detail 2-3 times a year. It's generally a 48 hour process for the exterior if I do it solo and don't rush through it. I can keep the detail healthy between washes + product application. Honestly, just use Meguiar's "Last Touch" spray after every wash and it will make your detail last for months. Most other "detailing sprays" are total gimmicks and won't last, and that includes other Meguiar's detail spray products.
I'm telling you, I last detailed in November and didn't wash my car for almost 4 months. It was filthy, but after washing, drying, and applying, it looked like I had just detailed it. Another 2 months went by before I washed again (this last weekend) and the wax/polish I applied all the way back in November is still alive. I loooove this product. I was going through so many cans I went ahead and bought the industrial size jug. For wheels, use this, but not this. I used that crap for awhile before realizing this product causes specks or drops of clear coat on the side skirt panels to drip off into these white stains. It's permanent, and it took me forever to figure out where that shit was coming from. Luckily I caught it early and switched products.
What are your guy's favorite cost effective wheel cleaners?
I have chrome 22's on my Trailblazer SS that get dirty way fast and painted wheels on my Subaru Brat so looking for a versatile wheel cleaner that won't break the bank cleaning the wheels each week.
Right now I've been using Sonax Wheel Cleaner Full Effect and while it is great stuff the $60-70 for 170oz is a bit pricey.
For about half the cost Meguiar's D14001 Wheel Brightener looks interesting https://www.amazon.com/Meguiars-D14001-Wheel-Brightener-Gallon/dp/B0006SH4LY
Might be cheaper still to buy the whole gallon
